Angel Falls drops nearly a kilometre (about 979m) from a mountain. The water seems to be dropping straight out of the clouds. The height of the falls is so great that by the time the water reaches the ground it has already turned into fog (雾).

When I finally got the chance to do so, I felt extremely excited and nervous at the same time. In space, I want to explore the mysteries of the universe. I would float freely and observe the beautiful planets and stars. I also hope to conduct some scientific experiments to help us better understand the universe. To prepare for this journey, I will bring some essential things. Firstly, I will take enough food and water to sustain my life. Secondly, I will carry a camera to record every precious moment. And of course, I will bring some communication devices to keep in touch with the Earth. As for whether space exploration is necessary, I firmly believe it is. Space exploration can help us discover new resources and expand our living space. It also promotes the development of science and technology, which benefits our daily life on Earth. I believe that space exploration will bring more surprises and possibilities to humanity in the future.
